Following the on-site analysis at each resort (which was conducted in 6 different states in the span of a week), recommendations were made for specifically sized BannerStretch™ tensioned frames, silicone-edged fabric frames, and decal applications in other instances.

Persistent Gender Inequality in Iraq Calls for Coordinated Efforts in Developing 2nd National Action Plan on Implementing Resolution 1325
Baghdad, Iraq, 3 October 2018 – Gender inequality continues to prevail in Iraq with worrisome signals that it is deepening, requiring intensified efforts and coordination in developing a new action plan on implementing UN Security Council resolution 1325, UN Representative to Iraq Ján Kubiš said today at the high-level consultation meeting on the development of the 2nd National Action Plan. Although he was encouraged to see progress in the protection pillar and dedicated efforts to strengthen the participation pillar in the National Action Plan, the legacy of the conflict with the terrorist Da’esh continues to hamper steps forward and there are other worrying signs of women being targeted.
Mr. Kubiš condemned the recent attacks against women, including the assassination of two women and the sudden death of two others in the past month, all of them active in political and social spheres. Other civil society activists including women are targeted by social media and political threat campaign, among others for their contacts with foreign embassies. This is unacceptable.
“Only once politically and socially active women are protected and safe, Iraq can claim to be making real progress towards women’s equality and empowerment,” he said.
The development of a new NAP with all the diversity and complexity of issues will require continuous coordination and collaboration across sectors, in particular involving civil society, and drawing from the lessons learned from the previous plan, the Special Representative said.
“By making your deliberations open to the society, by publicly broadcasting them you could mobilise even broader support for your objectives,” Mr. Kubiš said.
The Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Iraq noted with disappointment that political forces that negotiate the formation of the government do so, again without the participation of women. “We all need to ask: “when the political leaders intend to deliver on their pledges to empower women and advance their rights as a part of the democratic entitlement of all Iraqis thus strengthening equal representation and inclusiveness? The time is now. Otherwise, all the exclamations about commitment to equality of women and values of democracy continue to sound hollow.”
Mr. Kubiš outlined UN efforts in support of women empowerment, noting that UNAMI supports women parliamentarians in their quest to establish a cross-political women’s parliamentary caucus. UNAMI will continue to impress on Political Parties who are key to advancing the participation of women in all processes to include women in their leadership structures, urging men advocates to assume a more prominent role, and parliamentarians to consider gender responsive budget in the next budget law to enhance the implementation of the NAP. The UN will also continue to advocate for the establishment of a dedicated institution in the next government structure with budget and authority to coordinate the implementation of the NAP and national frameworks and policies on WPS.
The UN in Iraq will also mobilise support of the broader international community, including through the International Gender Group from among embassies here in Baghdad, Mr. Kubiš concluded.

Implementation of the Elimination of Violence against Women (EVAW) law in Afghanistan has a long way to go, the United Nations Assistance Mission to Afghanistan (UNAMA) and the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said in a report released today. Judicial and law enforcement officials have sporadically implemented the two-year-old law supporting the equality and rights of Afghan women, and the Government has not yet succeeded in applying the law to the vast majority of cases of violence against women.

GLOBAL CRISIS, LOCAL SOLUTIONS: HOW TO REVOLUTIONIZE AND IMPLEMENT COMMUNITY-BASED MENTAL HEALTH CARE
Globally, the ripple effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, increasing forced migration, and a rise in human rights violations have accelerated the mental health crisis. This crisis is only expected to worsen, and providing care to those affected will become even harder. The WHO projects a deficit of 10 million health care professionals worldwide by 2030. Luckily, many communities across the globe are stepping up to the plate to increase access to care; however, this is just one of the hurdles we face. Community stigma, economic mobility, and gender are all contributing factors that must be addressed through locally sustainable treatment options. From partnerships between community stakeholders and medical professionals, to unlikely community and school interventions, it will take all of us to find solutions that ultimately lead to a healthier global community.

The implementation of Peace Agreement is undoubtedly compromised and partially derailed says Festus G Mogae Chairperson of Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission during the plenary meeting on October 19, 2016. Despite the challenges he remains hopeful that conditions will improve and the full capacity for implementation will be restored once again.
âThe fighting has disintegrated all the Transitional Security Arrangement Mechanisms, the little that had been accomplished has been lost,â he laments.
Pointing out that the threat of any further violence on such a fragile nation is a failure of leadership and a betrayal of people who deserve better.
Reflecting back to July, he said they have witnessed escalating hostility that has led to near daily violations of the ceasefire and a developing conflict between SPLA-IG and SPLA-IO. âUnfortunate sequence of events has unfolded and a fragile peace has deteriorated into open hostilities.â

WHY THE AUTONOMY OF GSCASH MUST BE SAFEGUARDED: GSCASH formed in April, 1999 Is a produr.t of our combined struggle for gender justice; engendering consciousness and sensitivity; creating a workplace conditioned by equality. Vlshakha guidelines of 1997 was a landmark judgment, which .
sought to empower the complainant, most often, a women suffering gender discrimination, to equality before law, despite the hierarchy of the workplace. Equality before law to all .
citizens guaranteed in the Article 14 of the constitution can be achieved effectively and substantially, only when enabling conditions are created for the hitherto disadvantaged and oppressed sections. .
So, one of the central concerns for setting up GSCASH like Institution was to have an autonomous body which Is Immune from the hierarchical command structure at workplace to deal with complalntspfsexual harassment.The underlying rationale .
Is simple: Any workplace has a hierarchical command structure -the boss/ CEO and the clerk, the teacher and student and so on. In such a work-place structure, it used to be impossible for the victim, if s/he is lower in the command hierarchy, to get any justice In case of sexual harassment from the existing bodies which are commanded by the higher-ups. The Supreme Court, while laying down the Vishakha guidelines (1997), recognised this specific nature ofworkplace and how rights of all employees to equal and safe work condition can stand violated due to gendered harassment, discrimination and violence. Indeed, what this landmark judgment underlined was the urgent need for a mechanism within the institution itself to ensure safe working condition for women as a right in itself. In other words, autonomy of GSCASH from the given hierarchical command structure of any Institution Is a sine qua non for Its existence and efficacy. Sadly, the recent trends in JNU shows that there is a concerted attempt so that GSCASH is subordinated to the administration's bullies and the EC members who trash GSCASH reports without the slightest effort to read reports or provide .
reasoned logic. Their single-minded agenda remains to curry.
favour with their influential 'aakas' accused of sexual harassment and act in their interest. This dangerous trend has completely curtailed GSCASH's autonomy and compromised Its .

Sexual Harassment ofthe LGBTIQ people is a social norm which enjoys support of the homophobic society and now, the fossilized IPC which facilitates the police to perpetrate violence and prejudice against them.

However, they are actually hair dressers tools. They are a type of curling iron used to set ladies hair in a "Marcel Wave". In 1872 Francois Marcel Grateau invented the hairstyle that became known as the "Marcel Wave."
